Dr. Miller had been with the peo ple of Charlotte for Ji years, barring short period during the war when he wa. at IVter.hurg. He flr.t ba carue pastor of the church here, lu 1H.V, and continued for two years. Then ha went to Petersburg, and i look charge of the Tabb streat Pree bvterian church. He gave up that charge lu W6 and relumed to Char lode, since which lime he had con llnuou.ly served a pastor of the First Presbyurlan ehurch. It Is a matter not only difficult, but really Imprac ticable to attempt a sketch of the life of thi eminent mau In au ordinary newapaper article That is properly a matter for the piges of history, and we can only confine ouraelf to a brief J reel lal of facts regarding bia life. Dr. Miller wa one of the original ' member present at th organisation of Mecklenburg Presbytery on Octo ber lHtb. Ittisft. Of the mlulster then present, Rev. R. 7. Johnston aud per hapa two other, are now the only orvlvor. An historical sketch of Mecklenburg Presbytery wa pre pared by Rev, Wm. E. Mcllwain In 1884, and from ita page we copy the following iu reference to Dr. Miller's work: During th second pastorate of th Rev. Dr. Miller, extending from l.siio to the present ( March IsM) 44-1 persons hav been received, and of these, 3 are now minister of the goepel, vU: Rv. W. W. Moore aod Richard 8, Burwell, received on pio feeslon of faith ; and Rev. Horace M. Whaling, on certificate. During these year the Second church was organ ised from the FiMt church. On tbe 6th of October 1H75, a petition signed by 16 persons, all of tbem members of the First church except one, was read by Dr. Miller to Mecklenburg Pres bytery, then In session In the First church, asking for the organisation of a Second church in the city of Charlotte. This petition w as granted and 21 of the 30 members who enter ed the organisation were from the First church, and other from time to time have united with the Second church. And yet the First church has now (March 1884) 0 members, thus showing a net gain overall losses by death and removal of mora than 120, whilst the growth In the two churches In Charlotte has been from Presbyterian minister had vr been heard or seen, spending from alght to ten week., and traveling some time after leaving th railroad a much aa HA) miles by private con veyance. But Dr. MIHer's work Is not all em braced I u thi.sketoh. He supported aeveral young ministers out of b'. private meana, and was Instrumental iu establishing the mla.lonary, Ben Oliel, In Jerusalem. Several thriv ing charchea, with growing oongre gatioua,eatablshed In tbe mountalna, are monumenta to hi memory. Dr. Millet waaborn In Charleston, H. C, and wa a loyal southerner. He waa preeminently a learned man, and undoubtedly the ablest minister of the State. He possessed a library of rare value, and among the treas ure which he collected are many proof sustaining the authenticity of the Mecklenburg Declaration of In dependence. The matter which b baa collected upon this subject is In valuable to the historian. In tbe death of Dr. Mllle, our whole community mourns, for ha was recognised by an creeds aa a man far above the ordinary, a giant of intellect, a powerful preacher, a friend and defender of theHouth. bound over .In two case $60 bond aaoh.
